WELCOME TO THE PELHAM JEWISH CENTER
We are an egalitarian synagogue affilated with the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism ("USCJ").  To read more about the USCJ, PLEASE CLICK, www.uscj.org/).

We are committed to fostering a rich, communal Jewish life through prayer, study, social action, and outreach to the unaffiliated.  We have a Hebrew school, adult education programs, youth groups, and social action programs.  Our relatively small size and proximity to New York City have allowed us to develop a community that is both close-knit and cosmopolitan.  We are fortunate to still have some of the PJC's elderly founding members, many families with babies and young children, many families with teens, many "empty nest" couples whose children grew up at the PJC, and single members.  Our membership consists of people from all backgrounds and experiences with Jewish observance, including interfaith couples. The PJC building has an ADA compliant entrance ramp and wheelchair accessible/ADA compliant rest room facilities.  All Are Welcome! All Are Encouraged to Participate!
